Joseph wise Admitted 10 Bail.

LoeASsPoRT, September 15.-[Special. l.
To-day Judge Winfield udmitt-d Joseph
Wise, the alleged murderer OF VIM. Mar
tin, to bail on the charge of murder in the
second degree on his ding an additional
bond OF S, 900. A legal question of vast
moment to the defendant was raised by
his attorney to-day. The jane Grand
Jury returned a bill for manslsughter
while the present one found an indictment
for murder in the second degree. His
counsel contends that inasmuch as former
Grand Jury had acted in the case the in
dictnent returned by the present Grand
Jury is absolutely void, but Judge Win
field held that the investigation by the
first Grand Jury in no wise precluded the
present one from getting in the matter.
His trial is set for October 3, and every
inch of ground will be ably contested.

SAN AEToN1A, Tex. September 49,
Since the first train robbery of the year,
which occurred at McNeill Station on the
two months ego, the officers, though
hampered by heayJ country and very
vogue descriptions, have been actively at
work. 1t is believed that they now have
the major part of the gsug and that the
rest cannot escape. Four or FIVE days ago,
Thomas Jones and Bill Humphreys were
arrested nesr Meridian, BoEque County, in
the northern part of the State. Hum
pbfeys is a man who has been ''up'several
times for stage robbery, but has been
smart enough most OF the time to prove
an slibi. When this play would not work
be turned States evidence and got off that
way. He and Jones are noted pals. These
arrests were kept a careful secret, az Hum
phrey's peDchant for giving things away
was well known. In this instance he
wished to tell conditioDally sll he knew,
officers obtained full and free confession
from them both.
Acting on information given to the Of
6cers, Stephens, Bales and Hamilton,
yesterday morning at day break surrounded
the house of John Creswell, who lives
twenty miles west OF Medina City, in Ban.
dora county and called him. He stepped out
side and was promptly nabbed. He had
a preliminary trial before the deputy
United States Commissioner and was
placed under s., 600 bond, which he has
failed to give. He is one of the parties
named by Jones and Humphreys. Accord
ing to Jones and Humphreys there were
birteen men in the Mcneil affair. After
cutting that train, they devided, six of
them doing the Flstonia, and seven re-
pairing TO North Texas aud making them
selves famous by the celebrated stoppage
of the Texas and Pacific train on q trestle
and the systematic burglary of everything

We take the following paragraph
from letter to the Shreveport Dem
ocrat by Hon. John j. Carter and
John D. Mcintyre, referring to the
bolt of the anti-Nicholls men at the
mass needing held in Minden on No
vember 21st:
Webster parish is overwhelming
for Nichols. No one doubts this.
The parish can be carried for him by
primaries, mass meeting, or by any
other plan that will obtain the sense
OF the people. One OF us this morn
ing, in a conversation with one who
is universally considered the head of
the opposition in this parish-though
to his credit be it said, he took no
stock in the bolt-heard him say that
there was no doubt that the parish is
for Nichols. We knew we could
easily carry it by primaries, but after
having accepted the issue that the
result would be determined by mass
meeting, and having our friends come
from distance-some from nearly
thirty miles-we did not propose to
play the baby act,' and send the
matter back to primaries for settle
ment."

There is something sad and touch
ing in the demeanor of the older men
who are found supporting the ring.
Recently we conversed with the edi-
tor of we'll known newspaper which
supports the State administration,
and our subject was politics. He was
an old soldier of the Confederacy,
and seemed well. He had got to sup
port the ring, or lose his head. With
averted head he urged the usual weak
objection to Nichols; and finally,
looking quite sheepish, said, 81 OBJ.

publicans seem to favor him." We
said, Colonel, you know Nichols as
one of the truest soldiers of the Con-
federacy, as one of the purest Demo-
Gratis, and loyal lover of his race and
State; and do you mean to say that
you fear to trust again our State to
his care?' He looked us square in
the eyes and said, "No; by Heaven.
I'd trust him further than any man in
Louisiana, but I can't support him;
my living is at stake, and I am too
old now to risk losing it." And SO it
goes; the immense power of the ring
controls many weak but we'll mean.

Act So of 1885.

This il an act to re-establish the
drainage of Bayou Fountain, in the
parish Of East Baton Rouge, and
makes an appropriation therefor and
appropriating $4,000 for that pur-
pose.
We understand that the history of
this bill is about as follows:
Jas. D. Houston, McEnery's 'sfaith-
full Achates," bought a tract of land
for a mere song on both sides of this
Bayou, which runs south of and near
the city Of Baton Ronge and fell upon
the plan OF having the Legislature
make an appropriation to deepen the
channel and thus reclaim the land, all
of which overfowed. The bill, through
the influence of Houston, though a
job pure and simple, was passed and
approved by the Governor. 1t is said
that Mr.. Houston is some 800, 900
richer by this act, and the State of
Louisiana has contributed the gratui-
ty We are informed by member
Of the Senate that when the bill was
on its passage, he informed fellow
member Of its character, but the
member declared that he was under
obligations to Houston, who had aid
ed him in getting through some of his
own bills, and must vote for it not
withstanding its questionable charac-
ter. Gov. McEnery should never
have signed this bill, which he must
have known was a job, if he took any
pains whatever to ascertain its char
acter. Did he sign it because he,
too, was ''under obligations to Hous-
ton ?'-Arcadia Record.

carry the election with love or money
they will organize bolt.
Lafayette Advertiser: 'You can
stack up red or blue chips, Whatever
they are, on solid Nichols delega-
ton from Lafayette. Do ye moind
that now"
Clinton Patriot: That 'parricidal
hand" fight of Gov. McEnery's de-
serves a ninche beside the 'sthree
palsies" of the impassioned oratorical
hero of the battle flag episode.
Abbeville Meridional: "The adj
ministrationists sent lots of Doodle
to Grant parish, and by the help of
the old radical element gave the Mich
oils ticket close shave. They were
beaten in the convention and prompt
ly bolted. Strange, is it not, that
McEnery and his gang are so much
afraid of boiling, aud yet their strik-
ers are always at it.
Colfax Chronicle: sThe proceed
ings of the disgruntled trump Of
boilers who marched down stairs
with their defeated minority last Sat-
urday, and pretended to elect four
delegates to represent ward 1 in the
Grant parish convention, were simply
ridiculous to those who saw how
plainly in the majority the regular
organization was which held the fort
in the courtroom up stairs and elect
ed their men without running off in
corner to do so. This is the plan
of the McEnery men, and the action
of the trump last Saturday shows
their determination to rule or ruin
the Democratic party
New Orleans Picayune: "The Ex-
ecutive Committee of Ouachita met
last Saturday, and though challenged
by a majority of the white voters of
the parish to submit the decision of
the issues in this contest to vote of
the white people at primaries in each
ward, refused to stand on the color
line. Petitions were presented sign
ed by Ats white voters out of total
Democratic vote of 973, asking that
McEnery go before the Caucasian
race in his own parish for vindica-
ton of his course, and it was refused.
"Let it therefore be proclaimed
throughout the commonwealth that
Samuel D. McEnery is not the choice
OF the white people of his own parish
for Governor, and that his friends re-
fused to abide by that test, and that
in order to give that refusal the sem
blance of authority the chairman of
the Executive Committee made up a
committee by appointment instead of
having one elected to represent the
people"
